Description
Introducing the Atlas 1.4x LF Extender (PL to PL)
TheAtlas 1.4x LF Extender (PL to PL) transforms Orion series lenses into full-frame optics. This extender provides complete coverage on 36mm x 24mm sensors with only one stop of light loss. Optimized for Atlas Orion lenses, it remains compatible with other PL-mount lenses. An included control gauge ensures no interference between the rear element of the lens and the extender’s optics.
On a standard 35mm sensor (not full-frame), the extender multiplies the focal length by 1.4x: a 100mm lens becomes 140mm, an 80mm lens becomes 112mm. A versatile solution for expanding creative possibilities without changing lenses.
Practical use cases for the Atlas 1.4x LF Extender (PL to PL)
Fiction film: extension of the focal range on studio shooting with full-frame sensors without equipment rotation.
Advertising and video clips: quick adjustment of anamorphic coverage for -ups while maintaining optical quality.
Documentary: increased focal flexibility in lightweight production while preserving the anamorphic coefficient.
Frequently Asked Questions:
1. What is the light loss with the Atlas 1.4x LF Extender?
The extender induces a loss of only 1 stop , effectively preserving light transmission.
2. Does the extender only work with Atlas Orion lenses?
Althoughoptimized for the Orion series, it is compatible with other PL mount lenses. Check compatibility with the included gauge.
3. What coverage is obtained on a full-frame sensor?
The extender allows full 36mm × 24mm coverage with full anamorphic rendering on full frame sensors.
4. What is the multiplication factor on a Super 35 sensor?
On a non-full-frame 35mm sensor, the multiplication factor is 1.4x (100mm140mm, 80mm112mm).
5. What is the purpose of the included control gauge?
It checks that the rear element of the lens does not interfere with the internal optics of the extender, ensuring safe use.
